Unfortunatly, the large ones have a poor drop rate in comparison to the small ones and even mining the Large Obsidian Chunks more often than not gives small ones instead of any large ones.

If you can get enough of these with the small ones, there are some very, VERY good crafted items that can be made by Blacksmiths. For mail users, especially hunters, Black Grasp of the Destroyer are EXCELLENT gloves to have. For plate/shield users, there are some very nice pieces as well.

Even at 70, the gloves are extremely good for DW Shaman, depending on the speed of the weapons it can be upwards of 50 mana per 5, with semidecent crit and hit. I'm pretty sure WF would proc this as well, but I'm not sure

Drops in AQ. Note that they are not looted from the mobs: Mining nodes will appear around the corpse of the mobs.

Req 305 mining to mine. If you're like me and don't have the expansion you better get this on your gloves.

These mostly come from mineable nodes that spawn next to a mob when it dies, once per mob killed, and only from Moam in Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj and Anubisath Defender in Temple of Ahn'Qiraj (found before and after the Twin Emperors).

The small chunks also have a small chance to drop Large Obsidian Shards, and they come from mineable nodes that spawn next to a mob when it dies, once per mob killed, and only from Anubisath Guardian just before Ossirin and Obsidian Destroyer, near Moam in Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, and Anubisath Sentinel in Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, at the entrance.
